Hi, I have trouble in login. I set 2nd authentication with wrong app, and I didn't backup my recovery key. I also formatted my desktop, so I cannot find recovery key, didn't set firefox sync, and all of my device wasn't connect with my ID.

In this case, how I can recovery my ID...?

And if I cannot recovery my ID, can I delete addon that already being distributed.

Note that you shouldn't confuse the 10 digit TOTP recovery codes you can use in case of issues with the authenticator app with the 32-character recovery key you can use when you forgot the password and do a password reset. Without access to the authenticator app and the TOTP recovery codes your only option is to create a new Firefox Account.

Then I cannot remove my add-on that forgot account already uploaded? I must remove it, because when I create new account and re-upload then my customers can refuse add-on (What is now release version.)
